                      Before Justices Garza, Benavides, and Vela

                               Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, James Julies Jones, attempts to appeal his conviction for burglary of a habitation.  The trial court has certified that this Ais a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal.@  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).  This Court ordered appellant's counsel to review the record and advise this Court as to whether appellant has a right to appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 44.3, 44.4.  On June 17, 2010, this Court abated the appeal because of counsel’s failure to respond to the Court’s order. 

The trial court found that appellant has no right of appeal.  At the trial court hearing appellant advised that he did not wish to pursue the appeal in his case and requested that his appeal be dismissed. 

The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provide that an appeal must be dismissed if the trial court=s certification does not show that the defendant has the right of appeal.  Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d); see Tex. R. App. P. 37.1, 44.3, 44.4.  Accordingly, this appeal is DISMISSED.
